Alkhidmat Delivers Food to 2,000 Flood Hit Families in Kasur

Volunteers and Donors Recognized as True Heroes of Humanity

 

Lahore, September 27, 2025 Alkhidmat Foundation organized a major relief event at Kasur Ganda Singh Wala, where refreshments were served to 2,000 affected individuals, lunch was arranged, and one-month food rations were distributed among flood-affected families.

 

Speaking on the occasion, Secretary General of Alkhidmat Foundation Pakistan, Syed Waqas Jafri, said that the River Sutlej had inundated several villages in Kasur, where Alkhidmat officials and volunteers played a vital role in rescuing the affected people and relocating them to safe areas. He added that tent villages were established at various locations in Punjab, where volunteers actively hosted and assisted displaced families.

 

He stated: “The volunteers who served tirelessly, both in the darkness of night and the light of day, and the donors who devoted their wealth for the cause, are all true heroes of humanity. Without these heroes, it would not have been possible for Alkhidmat to extend such wide-ranging services. We are grateful to them and pray to Almighty Allah for their immense reward."

 

Mr. Jafri further said that with the floodwaters now receding, families would gradually rebuild their homes, reclaim their fertile lands, and return to normal life. “Today, we are bidding farewell to these 2,000 families with one month food rations, essential supplies, and our prayers. Alkhidmat will continue to stand by them in every possible way during their rehabilitation journey,” he added.

 

The event was also attended by Muhammad Javed Kasuri, Ameer Jamaat-e-Islami Central Punjab, Ikramul Haq Subhani, President Alkhidmat Central Punjab, along with local officials.

 

Highlighting the dedication of Alkhidmat volunteers across the country, Mr. Jafri noted: “From Khyber to Karachi, Punjab, Azad Kashmir, and Gilgit, our volunteers have set new examples of service. In Buner, our volunteer Zahoor sacrificed his life while rescuing flood victims. Another volunteer, Ismail, was critically injured during relief activities and is currently on a ventilator, while Malik Hamid was severely injured while delivering food to affected areas. These are our real heroes, who continue to serve humanity without caring for their own lives.”
